Melee classes are sad in CC

[Petite]

It's definitely harder on Melee DPSes ever since 6.11a.

The BLM buffs made fewer people want to be at their mercy, choosing to either play Ranged jobs (Caster, Phys-R, Healer) or GNB as they are tankier and also dish out good damage.

This resulted in teams now usually having a single melee DPS, which in turn encourages Ranged jobs to focus them down. After all, Tanks are tankier and Ranged jobs hang in the back-lines.

Good Ranged job players will choose to focus you down and keep you away from the fray, basically destroying your effectiveness.

On one hand, I don't want them to increase Melee DPSes' survivability, but on the other, something has to be done. Maybe nerfing BLMs' Feeze/Flare to 10K could be the solution so we see fewer of them while keeping them viable. They're still too strong IMO.
